This video of a police dog performing CPR is the best thing you'll see today

Dogs are widely considered to be man’s best friend—but they are potential lifesavers, too. Just look at Poncho, a police dog in Spain who has been taught to perform CPR.

The Municipal Police of Madrid showcased Poncho’s skills in a video shared on Twitter.

In the viral clip (watch below) a police officer dramatically falls to the ground before lying down and staying perfectly still.


Poncho, then runs over to his fallen comrade straight away and tries to wake him up by pushing his side.

When he doesn’t move, the dog jumps up and down on his chest four times before placing his ear next to the police officer’s mouth to listen for breathing.

After doing that, he goes back to jumping up and down before repeating the move once again.
